Katy Perry may have been billed as this year’s Super Bowl Halftime Show but it was clearly all about Missy!

The “Fireworks” pop star, who opened up the show on an enormous robotic lion while performing “Roar,” gave fans an awesome treat tonight when she brought out our fav for a mini-set of her own!

Following Katy’s playful performance of “California Gurls” that saw the pop star singing and dancing with dancers in shark costumes, Missy and her crew came through and shut the University of Phoenix stadium down with a short but spectacular performance of her biggest hits. “Work It,” “Get Ur Freak On” and her most successful single to date, “Lose Control,” which had folks — both at the stadium and at home — going HAM.

It was definitely a sight for sore eyes and a reminder to the over 100 million people watching that Missy hasn’t lost anything but some weight! The rap queen wasn’t the only artist up Katy’s sleeve as the singer also brought out Lenny Kravitz for a duet of “I Kissed A Girl.”

If you follow 50 Cent on Instagram, his posts are a real life bi-polar reality show.

One minute he’s promoting products and shows he is involved in, and the next he’s slamming his ex for being a “hoe” then “he’s apologizing” and saying how much of an amazing woman his former girlfriend is before going off on another celebrity for dropping DMs in her inbox. What gives?

Over the weekend, the rapper called out his ex Tatted Up Holly for allegedly sleeping around with celebs like JR Smith and Trey Songz while they were dating (only to later retract his statement and apologize), but not before Holly blasted him for being a “manipulative woman beater” who continuously abused her throughout the relationship. And you know when there is a man who’s not treating his woman right, there is another man who’s willing to step in and make up for his shortcomings.

In walks A$AP Rocky…

The self-proclaimed pretty muthaf–ka, and ex of Chanel Iman, slid in Holly’s DMs with the quickness and dropped her a smooth line, which didn’t sit well with 50. A$AP wrote:

Remember back in December when we saw Rihanna heading to a party in dirty, “I’ve been dumpster diving” jeans following a mysterious photoshoot with Kanye? Well, that’s the look for the “FourFiveSeconds” video!

Just like the song and its artwork, it looks like we can expect the “FourFiveSeconds” visuals to be just as minimalistic and light on the theatrics.

As Rihanna reveals in a behind-the-scenes clip from the music video, the denim theme was suggested by Kanye who ended up giving her a “vintage” Sean John throwback jean jacket to rock for the shoot. The fashionista thought it would be dope to go for something timeless and all-American.

She says in the clip:

This is the first song that my fans are going to hear from the new album, and the first visual that they see. Kanye came up with the idea of doing just some real street denim all American type look. That’s the look, that’s the fashion tip. Denim never goes out of style; it’s classic, it’s iconic — just like the f-cking Beatles.

Although the PSA has a powerful message, some are underwhelmed by the commercial’s delayed response to what is an ongoing issue. An NFL arrest sheet created by USA Today shows that there are currently over 100 reports of domestic violence made by NFL wives and girlfriends against their player-husbands. During a rant against the league earlier this week, Miko Grimes, wife of Miami Dolphins cornerback Brent Grimes, tweeted her outrage regarding what she feels is a sorry attempt for the league to cover its own backside:

I tweet for the wives and girlfriends of the popular players that can’t say how they feel because their ‘bad’ has endorsements to protect.

I tweet for the wives and girlfriends that were physically abused by NFL players who were only suspended 1 game while she went to the E.R. CONTINUE READING

Lost loves and heartbreaks still remain top inspirations for great R&B records, hence why Ciara sounds the best she’s ever sounded on the acoustic version of “I Bet.”

The dancer went with the bare minimum for the acoustic version of the Harmony Samuels-produced single, filming the video in black and white and employing just three backup singers, a guitarist and pianist to help her sing the sentimental track.

Believed to be inspired by her relationship with Future, the 29-year-old entertainer told PEOPLE magazine that she pulls her music from life experiences.

As a songwriter, I always pull from my life experiences as well as the experiences shared by others. It is important to me that my music feels real.

Cici also revealed why she decided to name her upcoming album after her mom, Jackie.

Recently a picture taken of middle schooler Vidal Chastanet helped raise close to a million dollars for his school, Mott Hall Bridges Academy. But it wasn’t the photo that brought in the big bucks — it was the inspiring caption that went along with it.

The picture was taken by famed street photographer Brandon Stanton, who is the brains behind the popular photo project, “Humans of New York.” The project is a collective of pictures that Brandon snaps of everyday people on the streets, while also asking them parts of their life story and what inspires them.
When Brandon asked the 13-year-old boy who was his biggest influencer, Vidal told Brandon it was his principal, Ms. Nadia Lopez. When the photographer asked why, the teen’s answer was beyond heartwarming.

Fif’s ex-girlfriend, Tatted Up Holly, dropped a bombshell Thursday night when she alleged that the G-Unit head honcho used to beat her behind when they were together. Holly made the startling revelation after 50 went on Instagram and referenced a website that called Holly his girlfriend and a winner. 50 then labelled the model a “hoe” and “community p-ssy” who’s been with Trey Songz and basketball player JR Smith.

The post, which 50 has since deleted, prompted Holly to seemingly text Curtis and threaten the release of picture evidence of alleged abuse. She posted the exchange on IG along with a caption accusing him of being a “manipulative woman beater” who used to give her “a** whippings.”
